Hi Hassan,

This is in the FAQ.

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_GnuCash_says_that_it_can.27t_obtain_the_lock_for_my_file._What_should_I_do.3F

Also what version of GC and which OS?  - some recent combinations have been 
having save & exit issues which can cause the file lock to not be properly 
released.

HTH,
Maf.
